  • A Johnny Thunders search brought me here. It's so apparent that without the street cred of American punk, there would be no formulated Sex Pistols. They all were Alice Cooper, NY Dolls fans already. Johnny was used by these wankers, as they say.

  • so right. why be like all the idiots you met at school. do what you want and dont forget contrylife butter. punk rock.

  • that jumper john's wearing at the end is the one he had on on the Bill Grundy show

  • Shane mcgowan in the union flag jacket!! Must have been before he was a republican???!! ;0)

  • @NRVERTAKEMEALIVE i noticed that on another video.

  • Malcolm McClaren R.I.P.

  • Nice video. Make some more!

  • 3:16-4:05

    BEST PUNK BAND EVER

  • an amazing period of time,really.

    nevermind all the bollocks and fashion,

    the music ROCKED!!

  • can u belive how small people knew about punk back in 76 then it all blew up and there the clash and the pistols are regarded as 2 of the greatest bands of all time.

  • Thanks a load for this,great tunes,long unseen footage & put together cleverly!

  • what the hell did those dumbasses think would happen if u had the sex pistols on the tv

    sex pistols are sick and the dammed and the clash!

  • what's the name of the song at 5:18 ?

  • It's 'Boredom' by the Buzzcocks from their 'Spiral Scratch' ep.

  • they do take away your soul, don't they. Try to resist.

  • BrotherAndreas604 is gay

  • The Pistols a boy band? That may have been Malcolm McLaren's original intention but they went far beyond that Bay City Roller expectation. If the Pistols were put together to make money off of "stupid kids" then the Clash of whom I also very much enjoy are also "stupid kids", they and many others such as Nirvana are also "stupid kids". Don't try to slag off legends.

  • lol, I had never thort of that, gosh they basicly brst threw everyry bad elements of music.

  • Brother i agree entirely-they're not my favourite blank gen band[the adverts]at all,but without The Pistols=no Punk in Britain eh! Do you get the impression that some of these comments are written by people who weren't actually alive in '77 ha ha!!!

  • The Pistols were a boy band put together to make money off of dumb kids. They put out one good album that's it. The Clash are the only band that ever matter! Fuck the Pistols!

  • You are a retard. Malcom McLaren dreamed up this idea of The Sex Pistols being a boy band for the plot of The Great Rock and Roll Swindle. The Clash may be the only band that mattered but if it wasn't for the Sex Pistols the Clash would never have existed, and according to your logic would have based themselves on a manufactured product. I DONT THINK SO.

  • You're kinda both right. The Pistols were more or less assembled by McLaren. But, it's also true that if there were no Pistols, there's no Clash, no X-Ray Spex, no Buzzcocks...lots of those early bands started as a direct result of Pistols gigs.

  • You mean The Beatles?

  • anyone know what the name of the song that starts at 5:14 is and who does it?

  • That song is "Boredom" by Buzzcocks, one of the greatest punk anthems.

  • cheers

  • @skinnyskaller oh fuck its awful i hate songs like that

  • Is that Sid at the one-minute mark?!?

    He wouldn't have been in the band yet, and, he was the self-proclaimed "Biggest Sex Pistols Fan", so...

  • Yup, that sure looks like Sid (and would likely have been there). It looks like Steve Severin next to him, and you can see Siouxsie seconds later.

  • Thank you. That's what I thought. Kinda funny to think Sid and Johnny were still living with their parents when they joined the Pistols.

  • THIS IS IMPORTANT

    Sid vicios john lennon and curt cobain and many more were killed by the goverment

    If it continued they would maibe start hawok which would make the people realize that the goverment is against the people and revolt.

  • Give me some links to support what you say,it sound interesting,if it's real that is.

  • no u cunt the clash are the greatest punk band ever FACT.

  • did you pull that fact out of your ass?

  • damned were the best end of story!!!!!!infact they still are.

  • The song at 3:15 is:

    REMOTE CONTROL by THE CLASH.

  • What about the Ramones though?

  • they weren't on the anarchy tour...

  • Ramones are the greeatest band in any genre, they were real, they were true, the were Rock n Roll, they were Punkrock. They were everything man, love them!

  • anyone know the song at 3;15 reply please if you know it

  • Remote Control - The Clash - from their 1st album

  • not really, on a 7" and on the re-realese for th us-market

  • Yes really ! 2nd Track - 1st album (Are you thinking of Remote Control?)Get your facts right!

  • Sorry - meant to say its Complete Control you must be referring to

  • STOOGES ,mc5 , and the new york dolls started everythng in USA

  • im reading a book about punk at the moment, so i really appreciate this video

  • ...

  • booooo punks rule

  • 1 pound 60 to see all those bands!  Ah, the good old days.

  • That young guy in the Union Jack jacket is.... Shane McGowan! Ain't 'e luvverly!

  • They're all in the audience: Sid Vicious, Siouxsie, Shane... Is that Magenta Devine in the pink outfit?

  • Is he still alive?

  • yes

  • what a nice bunch of posers !

  • May I remind you. That this was the creation and begining of any punk about to come. Punks now are commercial fucks that sing about their girlfriend who dumped them and dyeing their hair again.

  • You're absolutely right ! In that respect the Sex Pistols were the if not the first ( remember the Stooges for ex. ) at the least the ultimate Punk Rock band. The Clash, Siouxsie , the Damned and a few others I forget here had the wit and the intelligence to move on with their music. Emphasizing the fact that Punk also means creativity.

  • sex pistols were the first famous punk band. not the first.

  • old argument

  • Punks!

  • I don't want to be a punk any more.. I want to be a rude boy like me dad.

  • Boooring BoooOooOOring BoOOOoOring... exterminate! EXTERMINATE!
